As far as I remember, right from my childhood I have been seeing the Nescafe brand coffee being consumed in my family. They have been so loyal to the brand that I have never seen any other brand in my house, to be truthful. As I grew, I also started drinking Nescafe and till date continue the tradition of my family.
The instructions on the box indicated that one sachet was just sufficient for one cup of cappuccino. We found the preparation as too easy. The contents of the sachet were emptied in the coffee cup and boiling water poured upon this powder and stirred. The cappuccino was ready. We made all five sachets at a single go.
I appreciate the wonder that nothing else has to be added from home. The powder already has sugar, milk, salt, coffee-chicory mixture, etc. Care has just to be taken to see that the boiling water is not poured beyond a cup full for every single pouch, to maintain a good flavour and that lingering taste of Nescafe cappuccino.
Recently while on a picnic to a nearby place, we carried some pouches of Nescafe cappuccino along with us. At the picnic spot, we managed to get some hot water from a roadside shop and prepared delicious instant cappuccino that was enjoyed by all present in the picnic. In fact, another picnic party enquired about the shop from where we had purchased the cappuccino and were amazed that the heavy frothing cappuccino was prepared by us at the site itself.
The interesting fact is that the cappuccino powder, without the requirement of any espresso machine or a coffee percolator, automatically produces heavy foam.
And finally to tell you, the taste is superb.
My family liked the taste so much that next time I go for shopping, I plan to bring a stock of this Nescafe wonder, to store in my house, for instant use.
